Course Platform

Time of the course: Tuesdays 17.45-19.15  and Wednesdays 17:45-19:15

Students will set up a simulated company and communicate with institutions and individuals from different intercultural backgrounds via Zoom. The international project environment assisted by contact with international institutions and individuals will enable the participants to learn about the workings of a company as well as to practice dealing with international project partners in a near-realistic situation. Students will be able to put their intercultural knowledge into practice in real contact with foreign partners in the preparation of a project meeting.  

Time of the course: Thursday 14:15-15:45

Students are trained to perceive cultural differences and act accordingly. The intercultural competence gained is both, "culture-general" and "culture-specific" (e.g. students will practice culture-specific country investigations in order to prepare for their visits abroad). Theoretical insights into different working styles, different perceptions of time, different religions, and different education styles are applied in exercises and in concrete simulations involving active interaction if possible with participants from several other cultures.

Intensive Weekend Seminar,  03 - 05 December 2021at RheinAhrCampus in Remagen

“Sustainable Innovation”

 This seminar allows students and colleagues to put into practice their intercultural knowledge with students and lecturers from different cultures, nationalities, and countries and to continue this practice in their everyday lives. Students and lecturers acquire the ability to find co-operative and friendly responses to intercultural challenges. This seminar assists in improving participants’ empathy, tolerance, cultural intelligence, and accounts for significant personal change. By promoting cultural awareness in education, students are able to understand and improve their problem-solving skills, work productivity, and acquire better cross-culture understanding.
